    Dear Againstme!,

    Here is my two cents worth. As you may or may not remeber I owned the V1 for 30 days before and returned it. I am reordering it now because I miss the arrows. While, most will agree the arrows are not a need and more a want they help (for me) keep my eyes more on the road then off the road looking for where the CHP is hiding. Anyways, here is a little tidbit to help make your decision easier. Take a coin and choose either heads for V1 or for the X50 and tails for the other and flip it and see which one lands. If heads is for V1 and that is what it lands then don't go by what the outcome is but rather how you would feel about keeping the V1. And vice versa for the X50. Sounds dumb I know but it has helped me in all of my tough decisons. I miss the arrows too much and feel lost without them. They have a strong way of growing on you without really realizing it until its gone. So good luck with your decision

    Sincerely,

    Ace_Racer

    i think you made a good decision, you'll find that it's got good performance, easy to read digital display and it's not too expensive

    I just love how this V1 update stuff and the loss of whatever, is causing this bunch of people to migrate to the X50...it just amuses me beyond all reasonable belief

    the Ka range is abysmal. like staton said, every Ka is like an instant on experience. are the arrows really that missable of a feature?
